Dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves)

1 pound ground beef
1 egg, beaten
1 onion, chopped fine
1/2 cup uncooked rice
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1 tsp mint leaves
2 Tbsp olive oil
1-1/2 cups undiluted canned beef
broth
juice of 1 lemon
water
salt and pepper
grape leaves

Combine beef and 1 beaten egg. Add onions, rice,
parsley, mint, olive oil and 1/4 cup water. Season with salt and pepper. If using fresh grape leaves, soak in hot water for 5 minutes to soften. If using canned grape leaves, rinse in warm water. Place a teaspoon of meat mixture on a leaf and roll, folding ends in to seal in mixture. Place folded side down in a saucepan, making more than 1 layer if necessary. Add
beef broth and 1-1/2 cups water. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes. Pour lemon juice over grape leaves.
